Abstract

The presence of public green spaces in urban centers is essential for numerous urban activities, as well as, it is an alternative to mitigate the consequences of the phenomenon of climate change. However, many cities have public green spaces that are degraded, unsecurity and they are often pressured to be removed from the urban structure, as if they were the cause of presented problems. In order, we discuss the importance of green spaces in the urban structure briefly, in addition about the aspects are involved in the human appropriation of these spaces. This text is the result of the post-doctoral internship in psychology in Victoria, Canada and of academic research in bioclimatic architecture, presenting data from Aracaju’ squares (SE), Brazil. Examples are given to elucidate the ideas and discussion are presented. It is concluded that in order to use public green spaces as an action of urban resilience, it is necessary to offer a redefinition of these spaces by human being, changing your perception and your behavior.
